Blackman's touch is as sure as ever

Brilliant, intense and completely unpredictable . . . Dramatic and fast-moving

This tragi-comic ghost story is sure to please Malorie Blackman's many fans. Her books always succeed in being fast-paced and very readable, while offering the more thoughtful reader several layers of meaning

Expertly written

Make[s] the kind of breathtaking journey I wanted to begin again the moment I'd finished

Thrilling and chilling - but don't read it when home alone.

A suitably creepy tale of murder and urban exploration

The build-up of tension is so excellently handled that the desire to know what happens next has to be set against the fear that the revelation of what lies ahead is going to shock us well out of our comfort zone . . . she certainly knows how to play with a reader's nervous system

A treat: original, beautifully written and very enjoyable

A darn good adventure.

This novel is a chilling ghost story, a gripping adventure, and a heartwarming look at the often-painful pull of adulthood.
